My entire garage is covered in Gladiator slat wall. It has been a solid investment for me since I have rearranged the garage organization several times and the modularity of the slat wall makes it simple.These shelves are heavy duty and are perfect for holding large, heavy storage boxes. There’s no flex from the weight which gives me a lot of confidence in their durability and hold. Also, you can place the brackets above or below the shelf which is great. That feature alone has helped me place the shelves in places where they otherwise wouldn’t fit.I love the whole Gladiator line and these shelves are no exception.

These Gladiator shelves are incredible. Just the beginning stages of systemizing my entire garage with the Gladiator brand. So far, so good. Easy to install, very sturdy and attractive. Here in Vegas our garages are fairly small and this seems to be the perfect solution for storage with the ability to park both vehicles in the garage. My walls aren't completely flat, but I didn't have any of the issues other reviewers had. The product is a bit pricey, but well worth it and Amazon is about $20 each cheaper on the shelves than the home improvement stores.

I have seen other reviews suggest some difficulty installing this shelf if the wall is not flat. Assuming your garage walls are nice and flat like mine, it is extremely simple and easy to install. Not counting the time to install the gear track itself, this shelf can be assembled and installed in 5-10 minutes. It is extremely sturdy and secure and it looks good in the garage. If you look at the pictures you will notice there are two possible installation positions - one with the brackets above the shelf and one with the brackets below. Unless you are counting on the brackets to keep things from falling off the side of the shelf, I highly recommend installing with the brackets below. You will find it is much easier to put items on the shelf and take them off without the brackets in the way. As an added bonus, you have room for hanging storage below the shelf by adding Gladiator storage hooks to the lower gear track. If you install with the brackets above, your upper gear track is essentially wasted since it will be blocked by whatever is sitting on the shelf.

A heavy shelf but I managed to put six of them up on my own without assistance even though they are somewhat heavy and awkward. These are not some flimsy wire shelf that bends and twists at the sight of a large heavy storage box. I think the person who complained about the weight is missing the point, The shelves are long at 48 " and deep so by necessity they have to be heavy especially with their load rating. Two mounting options help give you a choice depending on you storage requirements, And they do make a reasonable work shelf too, These have no equal in the Gladiator range.As for installation they are not that difficult to install if your walls are flat as the shelf has a flange that runs the width of the shelf at the back that fits on the ridge of the panel. So your GearTrack or GearWall has to be straight or the shelf will be a pig to fit. I only have one spot that was not perfectly level so I had to shim part of the Gearwall to make it perfectly straight. I used GearWall rather than Gear Track to give a little more flexibility over positioning above my cabinets but I believe the Gear Track is a stronger option.I really like these shelves. Last but not least I think they look good against the cabinets in a man-cave sort of way.Some years later I think these are the best shelves that Gladiator make. The depth of them makes them extremely useful for storing many different items and with a rated 50lbs weight that covers a lot of things. At first I put them high up the wall above gladiator wall cupboards but now have some lower down. As mentioned before I used gearwall panels to give more versatility but once in place they are not moved so gear track would be fine.

I bought this shelf to span between the tops of two wall mounted Gear Boxes. Mine is mounted to a straight concrete block wall, so I did not have to muscle anything into position. The unit comes in five pieces, the shelf, two support brackets and two clips along with the needed hardware to put it all together. The clips are similar to the ones that are on the GAWUXXSHRH S Hook. The clips have two threaded studs that fit through slots in the support bracket. Bolt the brackets to the shelf and you are ready to install. My installation has the brackets below the shelf. If you don't have the Gear Wall panels, you will need to have two sections of Gear Track, separated by six inches. Install the clips first and then the shelf. With everything aligned, use the included wing nuts to attach the brackets to the clips. I was a bit disappointed that the shelf did not line up with the tops of my Gear Boxes; the shelf sits a little less than inch higher. Since I bought the shelf to store stuff that won't be used that often, it's not a big deal. Putting the wing nut on the lower stud can be a difficult unless you have nimble fingers. It was a little tight for me to get my fingers in there but fortunately my wife did not have a problem. The shelf looks good and is solid. If I was using the shelf by itself, this rating would be five stars. But having that height difference between the shelf and the Gear Boxes pushed the rating down to four stars.
